The mixed-use building will also host a new social hub called Cultureplex, which will include a restaurant, a mini cinema, bar, coffee counter and flexible event and work spaces. Fitness brand Blok will open their first studio outside of London in the property.

Guy Nixon, founder and CEO of Native said: “With over 180,000 square feet of space, this has been an extraordinary opportunity to take one of the great icons of Manchester’s industrial past and turn it into a major cultural and social destination for the city. We have worked closely with Archer Humphreys to make the most of the original features of the warehouse, preserving the huge glass atrium, the brick arches and thundering iron columns evoking the grandeur of Manchester’s industrial heritage.”
